Most possibly muscular pain

Detailed Answer:
Hi Jaimelopez334,
Thanks for the query.I understand your concern.
With no specific accompanying symptom or medical issue...you seem to have a sprain/muscle pull.This might occur with sudden strong movement like lifting weight or some awkward position in sleep, sitting posture.
* You should take rest. Can use ice pack to aliviate pain.
Apply muscle relaxent /anti inflammatory ointment like Ibugesic gel over the counter(not to be massaged.).Oral Ibuprofen pill taken after eating will help.
*In case of no relief..a doctor's advise for needful investigations (to exclude or find possible spondylosis or renal sones on left side) to be followed by needful medication.
I hope that helps you.Any follow up query is welcome.
Thanks
